Postby motorhead » Tue Dec 20, 2011 1:27 am

Looks like I made the cut... if you feel so inclined please drop a vote for my Buick:

Cheers!

So what if it's got a '60s V6, a big turbo, is 16' long, a 108" wheelbase, is 3700+lbs, has drag radials & a loose nut behind the wheel?

There was a couple sweet old-school celicas, and they're my sweet spot.
I voted for ya though, what's a club if we don't support! Good luck!

I've always liked Buicks anyways. And well if anyone is mad enough to autox one that deserves a vote.

Voted for the Buick. Luke, he's not mad: it's like a Maxima autoxer with bigger tires, more power and way more noise. It's pretty fun actually.
